It it was after Orban had praised the Georgian people for effectively voting no to war with Russia that Kristersson attacked the Hungarian the prime minister.
– He does not speak for the countries of Europe, he does not speak for Sweden, he possibly speaks for Russia, but he does not speak for the rest of us, said Kristersson.
A day later Sweden's ambassador in Budapest was called to a meeting with the Hungarian government as a direct response to Kristersson's statement. After the meeting, Orban stated that Kristersson's aggressive attitude had its basis in influence from the US.
“Sweden's prime minister accuses me of representing Russia's interests in Georgia. Apparently he has been instructed to do so by Washington. So sad.. .”, wrote Orbán.
The @SwedishPM accuses me of representing the interests of Russia in Georgia. He was obviously instructed to do so by Washington. blockquote>
